Alien director Ridley Scott has teased the future of the long-running sci-fi series now that Disney owns the rights.

 

The British filmmaker revealed he'd be interested in making another instalment within the franchise, having helmed the original back in 1979, Prometheus and its most recent outing, Alien: Covenant, in 2017.

 

But his hypothetical follow-up would be more of a Xenomorph origin story, than a straightforward continuation.

 

"I still think there's a lot of mileage in Alien, but I think you'll have to now re-evolve," he explained in a new interview with LA Times.

Now Disney has bought it expect it to be just as bad as all the other action type movies they make. They should stick to fairy tales as they do them quite well.

 

Having said that an origin movie would be worth seeing.

They can't think of decent stories though, 1 and 2 were very good then they went down hill
